Matt Vita is a stand up comedian.

Matt Vita (CBS, AMAZON PRIME, THE VERMONT COMEDY FESTIVAL, NEW YORK COMEDY CLUB), AKA The Gnar Father delivers the most explosive, gnarly, stand up comedy in the biz today making people laugh about everything from surfing to Microsoft Excel and shredding everything in between!  Also an award winning freestyle rapper (who has performed with such legends as Rahzel) Vita keeps audiences on their feet by interweaving improvised songs, freestyle raps and off kilter impersonations in this hilarious, high energy performance.  In 2023 Matt headlined clubs from Canada down to Florida, touring in a RAV4 with a broken radio which gave him a lot of time to ponder the absurdities of life and all the fun things he did that year- like open for Colin Quinn and appear on television with Queen Latifa.  In 2024 Matt continues to tour and was recently asked to open for comedy legend Kevin McDonald as part of his East Coast Tour!

Matt Vita is an improviser.

His monthly “Intergalactic Improv Battle” was the longest running Saturday night main stage improv contest in all of NYC, and every show somehow ended with him wrestling co-host Jacob Halberg in a singlet.  He’s been on house teams, he’s done hip hop improv for big corporations, musical improv for swanky house parties, and even jumped out of a cake once at a bachelorette party pretending to be a stripper… but then just like did some shirtless rapping and improv as a surprise. 

Please reach out to inquire about hiring Matt to coach your improv team or lead a corporate improv workshop!


Matt Vita is sketchy AF!

He’s been on sketch comedy house teams at The PIT (New York), Lit Comedy (DC), and has produced several one-man shows.  At the last ever DCM in 2018, his solo mainstage performance of “The Self Reflective Insult Comic” was the most powerful piece of art ever billed as comedy, according to at least one other drunk person backstage, and his multidisciplinary “Yes, It Did Hurt” which premiered at the The PIT’s 2017 Solocom probably included screenshots of your girlfriend messaging Matt on Tinder in 2016.

If this third person commentary voice isn’t enough, here’s a quote from one of Matt’s actual improv students...

 

“Matt is an attentive and thoughtful coach that taught us how to dig deep and find interesting characters, upping our game every practice!”
